Pilemona 1
Baibala Hemolele (Hawaiian Bible, 1868 revision)
Berean Standard Bible
1NA Paulo he pio no Iesu Kriato, a na Timoteo ka hoahanau, ia Pilemona i ko maua mea aloha, a me ka hoalawehana,
1Paul, a prisoner of Christ Jesus, and Timothy our brother, To Philemon our beloved fellow worker,
2A ia Apia hoi i alohaia, a ia Arekipo i ko kakou hoakoa, a i ka ekalesia hoi iloko o kou hale:
2to Apphia our sister, to Archippus our fellow soldier, and to the church that meets at your house:
3Ia oukou ke aloha a me ka maluhia mai ke Akua mai o ko kakou Makua a me ka Haku o Iesu Kristo.
3Grace and peace to you from God our Father and the Lord Jesus Christ.
4Ke hoomaikai mau aku nei au i ko'u Akua, e hoohiki mau ana ia oe ma ka'u pule ana,
4I always thank my God, remembering you in my prayers,
5I ko'u lohe ana'ku i kou aloha a me kou manaoio i ka Haku ia Iesu, a i ka poe haipule a pau;
5because I hear about your faith in the Lord Jesus and your love for all the saints.
6I lilo ka hui ana mai o kou manaoio i mea ikaika e hooiaioia mai ai na mea maikai a pau iloko o oukou no Kristo Iesu.
6I pray that your partnership in the faith may become effective as you fully acknowledge every good thing that is ours in Christ.
7No ka mea, he nui no ko makou olioli a me ka oluolu no kou aloha, no ka mea, ua hoohoihoiia ns naau o ka poe haipule e oe, e ka hoahanau.
7I take great joy and encouragement in your love, because you, brother, have refreshed the hearts of the saints.
8Nolaila, oiai ua hiki no ia'u iloko o Kristo ke kauleo ikaika aku ia oe i ka mea e pono ai;
8So although in Christ I am bold enough to order you to do what is proper,
9Aka hoi, no ke aloha, ke makemake nei no au e nonoi malie aku, owau no, o Paulo ka elemakule e noho nei, a he pio no hoi no Iesu Kristo;
9I prefer to appeal on the basis of love. For I, Paul, am now aged, and a prisoner of Christ Jesus as well.
10Ke nonoi aku nei au ia oe no ka'u keiki a'u i hoohanau aku nei iloko o ko'u paa ana, no Onesimo:
10I appeal to you for my child Onesimus, whose father I became while I was in chains.
11Ka mea pono ole nou mamua, ano hoi he mea pono io no kaua:
11Formerly he was useless to you, but now he has become useful both to you and to me.
12Oia ka'u e hoihoi aku nei; nolaila e hookipa oe ia ia, oia hoi, o kou naau iho.
12I am sending back to you him who is my very heart.
13Ua makemake nae au e kaohi ia ia e noho pu me an, i hiki ia ia ke malama mai ia'u nou, i kuu paa ana no ka euanelio:
13I would have liked to keep him with me, so that on your behalf he could minister to me in my chains for the gospel.
14Aka, aole loa o'u manao e hana pela me kou ae ole mai; i like ole keia pono ou me he mea la i kaili wale ia aka, no ka naau mai.
14But I did not want to do anything without your consent, so that your goodness will not be out of compulsion, but by your own free will.
15No ka mea, ua hookaawaleia mai paha ia i ka wa pokole i lilo hou aku ia nou mau loa;
15For perhaps this is why he was separated from you for a while, so that you might have him back for good—
16Aole me he kauwa la ma ia hope, aka, me he mea la e oi i ke kauwa, he hoahanau punahele, pela io ia'u, a he oiaio maoli no ia oe, ma ke kino, a maloko hoi o ka Haku.
16no longer as a slave, but better than a slave, as a beloved brother. He is especially beloved to me, but even more so to you, both in person and in the Lord.
17A ina i manao mai oe ia'u he hoalawepu, e hookipa oe ia ia e like me ia'u uei.
17So if you consider me a partner, receive him as you would receive me.
18A ina ua lawehala oia i kau, a ua aie paha, o kau ia e hooili mai ai maluna o'u;
18But if he has wronged you in any way or owes you anything, charge it to my account.
19Na'u na Paulo nei i kakau iho keia me ko'u lima ponoi, na'u ia e uku aku; aole nae me ka olelo aku ia oe, o oe iho no ka i aie ia oe iho na'u.
19I, Paul, write this with my own hand. I will repay it—not to mention that you owe me your very self.
20Oiaio hoi, e ka hoahanau, no'u kahi olioli ia oe iloko o ka Haku; e hoomaha mai oe i ko'u naau maloko o ka Haku.
20Yes, brother, let me have some benefit from you in the Lord. Refresh my heart in Christ.
21No ka paulele aku i kou hoolohe ana mai, ua palapala aku au ia oe, me ka ike aku hoi e oi aku no kau hana ana mamua o ko'u olelo ana'ku.
21Confident of your obedience, I write to you, knowing that you will do even more than I ask.
22Eia kekahi, e hoomakaukau e oe i wahi no'u e moe ai; no ka mea, ke manaolana nei au, no ka oukou pule ana e haawiia'ku ai au ia oukou.
22In the meantime, prepare a guest room for me, because I hope that through your prayers I will be restored to you.
23Ke aloha aku nei ia oe o Epapera, o ko'u hoapio iloko o Kristo Iesu;
23Epaphras, my fellow prisoner in Christ Jesus, sends you greetings,
24A o Mareko, a o Arisetareko, o Dema, o Luka hoi, o ko'u mau hoalawehana.
24as do Mark, Aristarchus, Demas, and Luke, my fellow workers.
25E alohaia mai ko oukou uhane e ko kakou Haku e Iesu Kristo. Amene.
25The grace of the Lord Jesus Christ be with your spirit.
